This is prooued in this, and some verses following, by a particular rehearsall of certaine sinnes apparant in these men.

Secondly, the fountain of these and other their sins in this word […]. Thirdly, the manner of their sins in these two words; Likewise notwithstanding; namely in two things: first, as Sodom and Gomorrah sinned, so •• ned these likewise, no otherwise than they. Secondly, they did not only sin as they of Sodom did▪ but notwithstanding they knew what had befallen Sodom and Gomorrah, they not being afraid of these judgements rush into these sins: and hereby they are convinced to be dreamers, seeing they sleep securely in the middest of such judgements.
